As basketball season heats up at Carpinteria High School, Coastal View News has a snapshot of the program’s past. Here, in 1925, Carpinteria High School students scramble for the ball on a court built alongside the school. For a short time, the high school was located in the building pictured above at the site of today’s Carpinteria Community Pool.
